Gay Agenda Quiz Guilts Florida Middle Schoolers

Yoselis Ramos, a now-suspended, first-year Spanish teacher at Monroe Middle School in Tampa, Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools) gave a quiz to pre-teens intended to "teach diversity" by forcing students to categorize themselves by "status of privilege." The quiz equated being born male or female, or a particular skin color, with "being" homosexual or transgender — implying that sexually immoral behavior is genetic (whichscientifically is NOT factual).

The three sex-related columns [on the categorization form] — “Sex,” Gender” and “Sexual Orientation” — offer an array of choices for the seventh-grade and eighth-grade students including “Intersex,” “Cisgendered,” “Transgendered,” Genderqueer” and “Pansexual.”

People are “cisgender” if their stated gender matches their physical sex. The word means normal. “Intersex” is the very rare condition of having genitals that aren’t wholly male or female. “Pansexual” means feeling sexual attraction toward all genders and gender identities. (It’s way broader, apparently, than merely bisexual.) “Genderqueer” means subjectively feeling that traditional boy/girl norms don’t apply to you because you are a special snowflake.

School district spokeswoman Tanya Arja assured WTSP [TV-10] that the survey is not part of the official Hillsborough County Public Schools curriculum.
